Stage IV Cancer For The 4th Time
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Timothy Sexton and I was first diagnosed with Stage IV Colorectal cancer back in 2019. I underwent surgery to remove a portion of my colon and tumor on September 20th 2019. I underwent 6 months of aggressive chemotherapy, followed up by pelvic radiation and chemo pills.
I officially went into remission and finished treatment on June 2nd 2020. I stayed under close surveillance for the next few years until a CT scan in early 2023 showed that I could possibly have cancer again, this time in my appendix. I underwent another surgery to remove my appendix and it came back positive for Goblet Cell Cancer, a very rare form of cancer that only about 1 in 2 million people are diagnosed with.
A few weeks after my recovery from appendix surgery, I had my routine colonoscopy which unfortunately revealed that the Colon Cancer had returned in the same place it was in 2019. The plan from here was to remove my colon completely. I underwent another surgery in April 2023 to remove my entire colon and be placed with a permanent ostomy bag.
After my recovery from Colon surgery I was placed back on close surveillance. My recent CT scan on October 7th, 2023 showed cancer in some soft tissue in my abdomen area. My blood work also shows cancer cells rising. I will be placed back on chemotherapy starting November 7th, 2023. I will take oral chemo pills for 2 weeks on and 1 week off along with a chemo infusion for the next few months at least. We will continue this treatment until early 2024 and have another CT scan to update my situation.
I have been trying to get back to work ever since my colon surgery in April 2023 with not much success at all. I could use all the help I could get. All donations will be used for my bills and living expenses.
Please pray, help, share and donate if you can.
Thank you to everybody in advance. I will beat this cancer once again! With the help from you all!
God bless you all!
